This is a great time saver for plotting paths in animation, for making image maps or any type other situation where you need to plot X,Y coordinates for an object. Whether it be for CSS or a scripting language, this tool makes it easy by allowing you to click on any spot on your screen and it saves the points you click in an array for you to copy and paste into your application or css. I use it mostly for plotting the path of objects that I animate with JavaScript and CSS. When I animate an object in a website, I put all the points of the animation path into a JavaScript array. That is why I use the array, but you can modify the code it puts out to serve your needs. It will still save you a lot of time. I like to use a dry-erase marker and draw a path on my computer screen. Then I click along that path to get the coordinates into an array to use in my javascript application. If you have ever seen a site that has a person or other object move across the screen over top of your other webpage content, that can be done using javascript and CSS in the manor I describe. I will add a follow up tutorial on animating objects in a web page using JavaScript and CSS soon!
